I'm switching to Sprint in a couple of days and I've been eyeballing the Evo 3D. I'm a huge fan of HTC (I currently have the Aria) and HTC Sense. My friend works at Sprint and he can hook me up with a phone. I asked him if he could get me the 3D and he said yeah but there are problems with it. He recommended the Galaxy S2 but Idk. Do you guys have problems with your Evo 3D? And I don't mean battery problems

As with any phone some will have issues while other won't. i have had mine since end of July with Zero issues. I am rooted and running CleanROM. Definitely recommend rooting it and flashing CleanROM. Very fast and stable ROM that has the look and feel of stock with great battery life. I get 24 hours with light to moderate use and 12+ hours with moderate to heavy. It is worth checking out.
It is up to you, but I say go for the 3D!
No problems here. Ur friend doesnt really do his homework. U will never own a problem free phone but ths sg2 is far from it.

I've been hearing the reverse. Between the Samsung Epic 4G touch (Samsung Galaxy SII) and the HTC Evo 3D, the Samsung has much more benefits...also the 4.5 inch display is really attractive. If I had the option, I would definitely switch over to the Samsung. However, since you're posting here, I think the development community is much more active with the Evo3D...basically meaning more options. Also I've heard Samsung is bad with rolling out updates.

Yeah I know the screen is Super AMOLED but I looked in the S2s forum and there isn't a HTC Sense ROM out and I don't think they plan on releasing one anytime soon. I'm just getting the Evo 3D because it runs HTC Sense and is faster than the Evo 4G. I really don't care for the 3D part
Sent from my Liberty using XDA Premium App
The SG2 is a faster more up-to-date device. Its screen seems to be very popular among most because of it's high-contrast AMOLED tech; even though it is lower resolution than the 3D's. I'm honestly not sure what the dev scene for it looks like... because, well, I don't have it so I haven't ever really looked at it.
I personally chose the 3D because I like the 3D feature (gimmicky as it may be it is pretty dang awesome) and, more importantly, I like HTC's build quality and design.
As for my choice; I've been through three Evo 3Ds, the first had a cluster of dead pixels, the second rebooted and had some major light leakage problems, and the third had (and is building up more and more) dust inside of its screen. My third replacement should be coming within the next couple of days so we shall see what #4 has in store for me.
As for bugs in the SG2; I've heard horror stories of LOS problems and some issues w/ the battery life but I'm no expert, I say do a little bit more research on each phone before you make your choice.
P.S.: You will never find a "perfect" phone. They all have their pros and cons, it all comes down to your preference in the end.
Edit: Oh, btw, you'll never see a Sense ROM for the SG2; their code is not open-source so only HTC can use it.

Thanks for clearing that up! So I'll just do a little more research on that. But I'm still leaning towards the Evo because I'm not a fan of TouchWiz. But I really do like how slim the S2 is. And its screen

He is not asking about sprint, he is asking about the phone. This the the second thread that I saw you posted in saying the same thing but you didn't give a reason why.
Back on topic, i think besides a couple of design flaws like light leakage and some people complaining about a crooked screen, the evo 3d is awesome. If I had the choice, i would get the 3d again with all of the software issues that the sg2 is having (los).

What's a light leakage and is it something that would make me not want the phone? I just want it because it's the fastest phone that uses HTC Sense. Unless the TouchWiz UI is better?

In the dark, you might see some light seeping through the crack between the screen and bezel or the backlight might bleed onto the screen from the sides. Google light leakage phones for examples.

Pictures OBVIOUSLY not taken with an Amaze camera
Sent from my Energized HTC Ruby using XDA-Premium or Tapatalk
is tha sensation has still the landscape death grip issue? That is why it keep me holding back to get the sensation and instead got the Aamaze...
I've had the Sensation for about 6 months now (upgraded from N1). I picked up an Amaze 1 week ago and I am also trying to decide if I like it enough to make the switch...
Some observations:
1) I can't figure out how people are holding the Amaze that the protruding screen is a problem. I agree it's not the best design, but overall a non-issue for me.
2) I've noticed a bit of light bleeding up from the bottom of the screen which washes out darker colors. I'm not sure if this is a defect on just my unit?
Edit: I guess this is the known problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1488861
3) The colors overall seem to be more saturated and warmer than on the Sensation's screen
4) The camera effects (like vignette and dots) are accessed through a very clunky menu where previews are not provided. Lame.
5) The 2nd camera is MUCH better and actually covered in the front glass, which means it is not CONSTANTLY covered in dust and dirt like the open one on the Sensation.
6) Scrolling around on webpages doesn't feel as smooth as on the Sensation. I keep trying them both side-by-side, but I can't really decide if this is actually true. Maybe the ICS update for the Amaze will help?
Also, when flicking the page up and down, it the Amaze doesn't scroll as fast - is this a setting somewhere perhaps?
7) The Amaze is SIGNIFICANTLY heavier feeling than the Sensation. I think you can feel the difference in thickness the most, despite the Amaze only being 1mm (?) thicker.
8) With the same moderate usage throughout the day, I feel like the Amaze has noticeably longer battery life.

I replaced my sensation with the amazing Amaze about 3 months ago. And I don't have any regret what so ever..sensation is a great phone but nothing like the Amaze...to me the different is like night and day. Or in another word the Amaze is a sensation on steroids... Lol.. The camera,the speed, sound, especially the speaker phone, screen, the over all quality is higher that's beside the solid feel in your hand. The only thing it lacks is the development as every one else mentioned but this is temporary and it's going to be over soon and you will have ton's of roms and mods for this phone...shortly.

i remember i bought the captivate when it first came out (it was soo cool back in the day) and development didnt even pick up till 1 year after. its bene like 2 years since launch and its the most developed phone in XDA i believe. wow. The amaze is simply better then the sensation. The sensation is older therefor has older hardware ,,, the 1GB ram will be noticably better in ICS and its just better to have .. i was going to switch for an S2X but i love the amaze's camera by far the best. i just hope we get sense 4.0 as this isnt that old of a device. Its relativley new (atleast here in canada)

Ever since purchasing this phone, I wish I had ditched TMo and gone to Verizon for the GNex.
I was wanting to ditch Tmo and go to Verizon for the Gnex also but decided to get the Amaze instead. Not one regret. For me at least the service is great and I would be paying almost double with Verizon. I played with the Gnex... Pretty cool and all but when I pick up my Amaze again no regrets.

LIES!!!!!! the SII may have better battery life, but overall the phone is crap lol
Now it may be the rampant HTC fanboy side of me, but i gotta say hold on here, why does having ICS make the GSII a better phone?
Inside their specs are almost identical, and to some the SAMOLED pentile screen (which IMO is a bit oversaturated and overrated) looks like crap.
Batterywise: what kind of battery is the GSII packing? either way battery life depends on how hard you hammer the phone, I keep my Amaze clocked down to about 1Ghz and i get pretty awesome battery life on it, upwards of 14 hours
Im supposed to get my amaze delivered today. Hope so. Ive had my gs2 for about a week. Its a very good phone. Takes a while to get used to the big screen. (Coming from g2x). I cant yet compare it to the amaze, but like i said, its avgreat phone. Battery is ok, not great. Blazing fast. ( same hardware as amaze). Ics is ok but not quit there yet. Im running juggernaut 5.0 gb and it works great. As of now it has much more dev support. Do what you like, but i say, if it aint broke, dont fix it.

As for which is better, its all personal preference. I prefer HTC someone else might prefer Samsung.

You're gonna have to hold both devices in your hand and use them for a day or two to decide... But since you say you're a fan of HTC, you should probably keep the Amaze. Both devices, in my opinion, are on par, but if I were you, I'd go for the SGS2 in a heartbeat since it's more to my liking
Seeing as I left the GS2 for the Amaze I can say that i think I made the better choice. This phone is much more pocketable. We may have screen bleed from the bottom but that is an easy fix. The GS2 has blotches and streaks in the screen that cannot be fixed. The camera on the amaze is a lot better.
I like My Amaze and I will be keeping it to at least the fall for when my upgrade is available.
The amaze is garbage it has a horrible screen, washed out pics, battery life is a joke...i had mines for one day and turned that crap back in for a gs2, the gs2 isnt perfect it feels cheap cause of so much plastic but other than that and the camera everything beats the amaze
---------- Post added at 10:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:22 AM ----------
But I'm not here to bash anybody everybody has their own opinion, youtube reviews if that would help
Just hold both in your hand at a Tmo store and play with them, and decide which one you like best. For most people either phone is going to be a perfectly fine phone for everyday use, it all just comes down to personal preference.
About the same.
Some videos are better on sgs2,some are better on amaze.
I was retesting both side by side last night.I was on the sgs2 for a while,but when I woke up today...
I went back to the amaze.
Better for today atleast.

It would have looked better if they could have chosen one type of material to do the back instead of a collage of plastic, coated aluminum, and red brushed aluminum. The OG 4G back was much better.
If they do it right by making the entire frame in the front white it might look decent. It will probably just be the back though.
Nothing announced or official
I concur on the mock up of the white evo lte.

Well my good friend just came over to show off & compare his New GSIII to my EvoLTE. Well let me know after coming from the E4GT this phone looks & feels almost identical. It is bigger than the EvoLTE but it is lighter & thinner which makes it extremely hard to hold comfortably & safely IMO. The screen doesn't even come close to the Evo. The colors are way over saturated and it has a bluish tint to it. TouchWiz is back & ugly as hell. It does open apps and switch between screens with no noticeable lag which is a plus cause the Evo has been laggy for me at times. Overall Im happy with my decision to get the Evo. Think I'll pass on GSIII and maybe go with the Note 2 if Sprint gets it.

I hear people talking about the S3 like some new god of a phone, but I honestly prefer HTC, with Sense. The hardware and benchmarks are so similar, you really have to look at the devices and see what you personally prefer for the experience of the phone. I prefer the style of the phone to the G S3, and the extras like the dedicated photo key, which I use a lot, and the kickstand, which I actually use a lot as well. Don't forget the SLCD2, too.

I agree the evo is better IMO
Also my galaxy note is better also ...I almost went to the s3 because everyone raving about it....hahahaha I'll pass

Touchjizz and the GS3 look like a redeveloped iFail to me.
I agree that the G3 isn't that great, but for most people who aren't exactly super picky like us, will suck up the fact that touchwiz is god awful ugly and use the phone. Much like the iPhone, Samsung is doing a lovely job with the bandwagon advertising. People think the phone is god, people will buy said phone pretending all flaws do not exist.
I guess everyone's opinion will be different. I'm sure I would still prefer the EVO over the S3 myself, if given a choice...I just find it interesting how the screen on the Galaxy phones are always said to be color inaccurate and not as good as the LCDs on phones. I say this because OLED TVs are supposed to be the next big thing with the most accurate color reproduction of any TV to date, plus a sharper picture and best contrast ratio. And they will be damn expensive when they hit the market. I'm guessing there must be some kind of difference between the phone and TV version of the screens.

Yeah, it seems like everyone has said that when comparing them side by side... It's just strange when OLED is supposed to be the 'superior' technology. Maybe it's just a phone thing... on a side note, though, my next TV will definitely be a Sony and not a Samsung. Had problems with every Samsung we've had, and absolutely zero with every Sony.
Thanks, I feel better for sticking with my EVO LTE.
I'm wondering if people who own the GS3 are also having the same issues with text and calls not going through as well as connectivity issues some EVOLTE users are experiencing. If so, we would be able to narrow down these issues directly to Sprints network instead of blaming the phone.

I never really liked Samsung devices, but I was gonna get the nexus until I heard the Evo LTE was coming so I waited, and I was worth it. The only thing i liked about the GIII is the pop up videos and I got that through an app

Spring is preparing the towers for lte it's everywhere every phone is having that issue . I lost connection for a day and i just found out that alot of prepaid phones use Sprint towers my friends had vigin mobile and boost mobile and they had lost connection the entire day too. They fixed it for two hours then lost connection. We all at work thinking the world is ending lol. Sprint is giving me credit on my bill for that issue and anyone who calls in will to, i mean no data or signal or nothing but thankfully lte is up just not turned on because they said to me our town has to wait it's turn.

Samsung Galaxy is a bandwagon, much like Apple iPhone.
